The following, from the Grass VAL
ley Tidings, comes home with pecu-
liar force to the people of Taylor,
whose all is at stake in the event Of
FIRE:
These are the days of fires. Every
thing combustible is dry and hot snd
will go of like finder at the touch of
spark. Therefore every person should
exercise great care when handling IRE
or matches. The stoves and the ashes
want the very best attention. Already
fires are reported from the wheatfields.
The careless farmer lights his pipe and
filings from him his burning match,
and his years work is consumed 10 q
moment. Or few matches are drop
ped where the sun shines upon them
and sets them off among the dry stub
Bile. The telegraph is busy telling OF
these accidents. And in few days
we shall see great clouds of smoke in
the day time and bright pillars of IRE
in the night time in the upper noun
tains. The men who drive cattle and
sheep TO the green pastures around
the summit of the Sierra will let their
camp fires spread in the dry grasses
and in dry leaves millions of dollars
worth of timber will &c off in gas and
smoke. These things come with the
dry seasons, and no amount OF preach
ing against carelessness and no legis-
lation, be il never so stringent, will
prevent the criminal stupidity that
starts the fires. In talking abou. these
matters We only hope to induce some
few people in town and country to be
careful enough not to burn their own
houses.

Gettysburg, Pa, July 2.-The city
is thronged and jammed with people
to- night, and the streets and houses
are brilliantly illuminated and deco
rated in honor of the meeting of the
Blue and the Gray. The Philadelphia
Brigade arrived this evening, and, after
securing quarters, marched to the
depot to receive the guests. At 1925
the ringing cheer from the Philadel-
phia Brigade was answered by the
we'll known rebel yell which announc-
ed the visitors had arrived, and 200 of
Picketts's vererans marched out and
surrendered to the hospitality of their
friends. A grand procession formed
and marched up town surrounded by
thousands and thousands of enthusiast
tic and excited people yelling them
selves hoarse. A camp fire was held
at the court house which was crowded
10 suffacation. When all was ready
General Burns assisted Mrs. General
Pickett TO the stand amid tremendous
cheers which shook the building and
introduced her and her son to the
audience. She was visibly affected by
the reception accorded her.

The Color Line and Royalty

Vanity Fair of July Cd says; The
Queen of Hawaii undoubtedly intend
to pay our Queen and our nation a
great national compliment by coming
TO be present at the Jubilee; but un-
doubtedly the court officials find her
Majesty somewhat of white elephant
Gf I may be pardoned such misstate-
ment of color, on their hands. For
instance, at Buckingham Palace, the
King of Saxony was blandly informed
by the court officials that he was re-
quested to take the Queen of Hawaii
in to supper. THE devil am :"
brusquely replied his Majesty. I'll
see everybody first before l
take a black woman in N supper. +"
The King was accordingly assigned to
the Queen of the Belgians and the
Duke Of F,iinburgh had to sacrifice
himself to lie altar OF patriotism.

Men who clashed arms in Piekett's
charge at Gettysburg fIaternized last
Saturday, the anniversary of that fate
fui battle; and in New England a
company of confederate veterans has
been met with a cordial welcome.
These are signs of the times more sig
niicant far than any querulous plants
that might have been heard over the
disposition of q lot of old battle flags.
No spirit of vengeance and hatred is
dominant in the land to day, whatever
the would-bs resurrectionists of long
buried quarrels may say.
